63 Grad ("63 Degrees") is the name of this folding bench done by Angelina Barkschat, Finn Blumel and Severin Arnold, all students at Germany's Muthesius Academy of Fine Arts and Design.
It's not clear if it's meant to be used indoors or out; that many feet would probably present a problem on grass or dirt, but placing the bench on a finished surface would probably de-lam the plywood on the angled feet. In any case I'm intrigued by the fabric hinges, and I love the fold-flat design.
Information on the project is light, and any web presence of the design students responsible appears to be nonexistent. Barkschat, Blumel, and/or Arnold, drop us a line (at mail [at] core77.com) if you're reading this! We'd love to hear more.
